Ted's Comments

One imagines that the first priority in the planning stage was "Show off my hot bod", followed by "What else can I wear to get as much attention as possible?", then "What character wears a helmet, so none of these losers gets a picture of my face?"

It is pretty stupid, but a lot of things are done without any "valid reason".

I'll say it again: is this a Russian/ Eastern Europe thing?

It wasn't a Microsoft thing to eliminate two spaces. Word processing in general elimnated the need for two spaces, since paragraphs and lines could adjust more easily.

Read Robin Williams' (no, not him, it's a woman) The PC Is Not a Typewriter (aka the Mac is Not a Typewriter, written in 1990) to learn why we don't need two spaces.

Basically, it's because computers have proportional spacing, and two spaces just creates white spaces.

I agree with Alex.

Humankind has been trying to make sense of its existence as far back as anyone can tell.

So, as an atheist, you rationalize that your answer is the true answer, and it may well be.

So how do you conduct yourself in the contemplation of your truth? Is your attitude any different from the intolerance of the religious people you disdain and heap scorn on? If it were merely logical and reasoning arguments you used, then Alex's comment would not be justified.

But I recognize exactly what Alex is saying. As soon as some topic here borders on the Christian faith (not always with other religions), there is a vocal anti-Christian backlash.

Religious and political ideologies are not the reasons for violence, but greed and the quest for power masquerading as those ideologies.

Dude, what's with the anger? And the whole US bashing is tiresome after you post it in so many threads.

Maybe you should try and make something that will last 77 years. Furniture can last that long if you take care of it. Make a chair.

She's not necessarily going to be a bad mother. Plenty of women throughout history have had "accidental" childbirths, and still managed to love their children.

I wonder if the doctor was accidentally negligent, or whether he committed a deliberate act and told the mother he had performed an abortion, thinking she might change her mind later. Maybe he was a misguided crusader.

Yeah, I know Spiderman's not an X-Man, but I don't know their names otherwise. Ah, I see That Guy had the same idea, but he knows the perv's name.

Alex, if you have to explain it... ;)

And "sui generis" was translated awkwardly. The easiest way to paraphrase it is "one of a kind" or "in a league of its own".
